Chapter 19: Death
Wang Hao obviously didn't expect Yuan Qing to go and return so quickly, and asked with a slightly surprised smile: "Senior Brother Yuan, you came to receive the magic weapon so soon?"
Yuan Qing replied with a smile: "I suddenly got the sword before, and I was a little out of shape, which made the senior brother laugh, but this time I came here to invite the senior brother." ”
"Hahaha, it seems that the junior brother is also a temperamental person. However, I have yet to see a magic weapon take the initiative to confess the Lord, and it seems that the rumors may not all be false. Wang Hao said casually while leading Yuan Qing to the dark room in the back hall.
"Oh, what rumors?"
"It is rumored that the Dao magic weapon has a spirit, that is, under extremely harsh conditions, the best magic weapon has the possibility of giving birth to a wisp of spirituality. Since then, it has turned into a spiritual snake, and its power has increased greatly, far exceeding the ordinary best magic weapons, although it is not as good as the magic weapons used by the monks of the Jindan period, the difference will not be too much. ”
Wang Hao paused for a moment, glanced at Yuan Qing and continued: "Thinking about it this way, that water-breaking sword should be among them, and the junior brother has picked up a big bargain." ”
Yuan Qing was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but think of the sword weapon when he first saw the broken water, the smooth Ruyi when the sword was green, and the hearty when the sword slashed Su Yaze, and then asked: "Can this kind of spiritual sword need special method cultivation?"
Wang Hao shook his head and replied: "I don't know about this, maybe there is a record in the secret book method in the sect's collection." ”
While talking, the two came to the dark room, Wang Hao took Yuan Qing to the last row of wooden shelves, turned around and asked, "Senior brother, can you think about what kind of magic weapon you need?"
"It's not a secret, I'm here to see if Senior Brother has a magic weapon like a formation plate here, don't be of high grade, the range is large enough. Yuan Qing replied without thinking.
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "I think the junior brother has just built the Spirit Mansion, but there is no formation to protect him, right?"
Yuan Qing laughed and said, "Senior brother is really ......"
Just as he didn't know what to say, Wang Hao interrupted: "Haha, it's all like this, and I was so busy when I started." However, there is no low-level array gate, there is a flat-topped mountain about sixty miles to the northeast, there is a square market on it, which is subject to the supervision and control of the sect, and most of the transactions in it are used by monks in the foundation building period and below, there are many types, it can be said that there is everything, and there are even people who like the things in the cup to open a restaurant, and it is not difficult to find all the items required by the junior and disciple. ”
"Brother Teacher, what is the settlement in the city?"
"Spirit stones and merit points are available, and merit points seem to be cheaper. ”
"Thank you, Senior Brother!" Yuan Qing hugged his fists and turned around to leave, Wang Hao hurriedly stopped him when he saw this: "Senior Brother Yuan, don't be in a hurry to go here, you better pick a magic weapon first!"
Yuan Qing stopped, smiled a little embarrassed and said, "I don't know what magic weapons I need, do you have any suggestions?"
Wang Hao didn't answer, but asked, "Senior brother is a sword cultivator?"
Yuan Qing didn't know why Wang Hao came to ask, but he also said honestly: "Not bad." ”
Wang Hao showed a knowing smile and continued: "I have long heard that sword cultivation is in the same vein, with a flying sword, you can go up and down the Yellow Spring, the sword is fast, and the killing power is unparalleled, so the junior disciple does not need any defensive flying magic weapons." ”
As he spoke, he walked to the wooden frame on the right, pointed to a fist-sized transparent bead, and there was faint smoke rising in it and said: "This is a gathering spirit bead, although the quality is not high, but it can gather the vitality of heaven and earth within a radius of one mile. ”
Yuan Qing immediately made a decision in his heart after hearing this, and said without hesitation: "That's it." ”
Wang Hao smiled slightly and said, "Senior brother, give me the identity token." ”
Yuan Qing did as he said, Wang Hao took the token and took out the silver token and shook it on it, and then put it away with a stroke of the air cover where the spirit bead was located, only to see the spirit bead fluttering into his hand, and then handed the spirit bead to Yuan Qing together with the token.
Yuan Qing put the two away and solemnly bowed his hand: "Thank you, senior brother, when the dust settles on the matter of the cave, you must have good wine, and you are waiting for the senior brother to come." ”
Wang Hao smiled heartily and said in return: "Definitely!"
After Yuan Qing turned to leave, Wang Hao's eyes flashed, and slowly, a meaningful smile was revealed.
Yuan Qing walked out of the palace gate, and all the way to the northeast for about a quarter of an hour before he saw the Pingding Mountain that Wang Hao said.
It is said to be a "peak", but in fact it is just an oval high ground with higher terrain, and from a distance, it looks like a big tree that has been cut off by the roots, and the attic on it is lined up, and the flow of people is endless, which is quite lively.
It was close, Yuan Qing only felt a huge force on his body, but fortunately, it was not very strong, so he had no choice but to press the sword light and slowly fall near the west of Fang City.
Go forward but more than 100 steps to see a chiseled mountain stone steps, pick up the steps and go up dozens of steps to see the high stone tablet standing on the right side, carved "Xuanyuanfang City".
Behind the stele was a small two-story building embedded in the mountain road, and when it entered the first floor, a tall and thin monk in a plain robe stepped forward and asked, "Please show this senior brother his identity token." ”
Yuan Qing handed over the token, and the other party took out a jade butterfly and swept it back, and then bowed his hand, retreated to the side of the futon, closed his eyes and went down.
Passing through the attic, the eyes suddenly open up, a bustling and prosperous appearance; the bluestone street three zhang wide is full of people coming and going, a square table and a rattan chair is a small stall, standing along the street, from time to time someone stops to inquire and talk; and then there are large and small merchants, looking at its name like a major family opened, among which the Yuan Qing Dynasty saw the "Su Garden" opened by the Su family.
Walking around, Yuan Qing only felt dazzled, the items placed on the stalls on both sides can be described as dazzling, not only talismans, pills, exercises, but also the four treasures of the study, tobacco, wine and tea, and even spiritual pets for sale.
There was a wooden sign in front of all the stalls, most of which read "Spirit Stones, Merit Trading" and a small part "Spirit Stone Trading".
In the middle of the journey, there are two three-storey small buildings standing facing each other, the one on the north side is called "Tongbao Building", which is a jewel in it, and the one on the south side is called "Immortal Residence", which is actually a restaurant.
Yuan Qing only stopped for a moment, looked at his eyes and continued to walk, and soon reintegrated into the flow of people.
After walking and stopping, he saw a lot of magic weapons and talismans, but there were none of them, he couldn't help frowning, and his eyes were also patrolling back and forth on the merchants on both sides: Li's Refining Workshop, Zhao Jia Dan Pavilion, Lin Fuji...... It seems that Su Yuan and the Tongbao Building may have array weapons for sale.
After thinking about it, Yuan Qing still decided to go to Su Yuan first.
When I entered the Su Garden, I saw several monks bargaining with the shopkeepers, feeling their spiritual pressure, it seemed that their cultivation was not high, and there were all kinds of magic weapons hanging on the walls around them, but the quality was not high, they were all low-level magic weapons.
After a while, a shopkeeper stepped forward to greet him, and Yuan Qing saw that he was a mortal.
"This immortal chief is quite faced, and it must be the first time he has come to our Su Garden. We have all the magic weapons and pills here, and we have everything in the spirit pets, I don't know what the immortal chief wants to buy?"
"I'm going to buy a formation. ”
When the shopkeeper heard this, his face was puzzled, but then he bowed down and said, "Immortal Chief, wait a while, I'll invite the shopkeeper to come." ”
After a while, a middle-aged man in a crimson shirt walked over.
Yuan Qing only felt a divine thought quickly sweep around his body, and when he was frowning, he heard the opposite side say: "I don't know how much neglect my predecessors have come to the shop, and I ask for forgiveness" said and bowed.
Without waiting for Yuan Qing to say anything, the other side continued: "Please also ask the seniors to go up to the second floor with me, the first floor is full of low-level things, I'm afraid it will be difficult to satisfy the seniors." ”
Yuan Qing didn't say anything, nodded and followed him, and at the same time, Shen Nian also swept to the front unceremoniously, and found that it was only a sixth- or seventh-level cultivation of Qi cultivation, but the man didn't seem to be aware of it, so he just led the way.
On the second floor, it didn't look like a shop, but like a tea room, the man took Yuan Qing to a coffee table and bowed down before and after, followed by two seventeen or eighteen-year-old women cooking tea.
Yuan Qing picked up the teacup, the tea fragrance was fresh into the lungs, the entrance was slightly bitter, and it was sweet back, although it was not as good as the "awakening tea", it was also a rare good tea.
"Hahaha, Brother Yuan, I didn't expect you and I to meet here, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I really have made great progress in cultivating and building a successful foundation, which is really gratifying!"
The person who came was starry and sword-eyed, wearing a moon-white robe, embroidered with gold silk flowers and birds, holding a folding fan, looking like a beautiful son, it was Su Tianqi.
When Yuan Qing saw someone coming, he got up with a smile and said, "Brother Su, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have advanced to build a foundation, congratulations." ”
Su Tianqi waved his hand and retreated, sat opposite Yuan Qing, poured a cup of tea with his own hands, and then poured himself a cup, and only after tasting it did he say: "What is Brother Yuan asking for here?"
Yuan Qing put down the teacup and said truthfully: "Don't hide it from Brother Su, I want to buy a set of array weapons, I don't need to be high-level, the range is large enough." ”
Su Tianqi smiled slightly when he heard this, and said, "But it's for the purpose of guarding the Spirit Land Cave Mansion?"
Yuan Qing nodded: "Not bad." ”
Su Tianqi didn't answer, poured another cup of tea for the two, and then someone stepped forward and bowed down to obey the order.
"Go and fetch all the weapons in the garden. ”
"Yes, young master. ”
Su Tianqi just invited Yuan Qing to taste tea, but after a while, a group of five pretty girls came with trays in their hands.
Su Tianqi got up at this time, picked up the seven dark blue flags in the first plate in his left hand and said: "This is the Youshui Flag, which can protect yourself or trap the enemy within ten zhang of the Youshui Array, and there is also a water gun magic power, which integrates attack and defense, which is a good low-level intermediate formation." ”
Seeing that Yuan Qing did not react, he picked up the next earthy yellow array plate and said: "This is a trapping earth plate, the large array of trapped earth is within a radius of 100 zhang, and it is like a quagmire, if it is combined with the mountainous terrain, it can double the power of the formation, making it difficult to move an inch." ”
Seeing that Yuan Qing still had no reaction, he then picked up the next water-blue array disk and said: "This is a fog hidden disk, and the fog hidden array can cover a radius of three miles, and the fog inside it is full of fog, and it is quite a bit hidden. ”
Yuan Qing was quite moved when he heard this, and Su Tianqi seemed to see his thoughts, and introduced the next one with a slight smile. I saw him pick up a dozen small golden flags, and said with a little pride: "This is the Vajra Demon Formation, although it is only a simplified version, but it is also a real mid-level formation, and there is no reason for the foundation building monks to be trapped in it, even if the monks of the Yudan period fall into it, it will be difficult to break out of the formation for a while." ”
After speaking, he didn't look at Yuan Qing's expression, and then picked up the small cyan flag in the fifth tray and said: "This is a set of spirit gathering formations, which can gather spiritual energy within a radius of one mile, although the level is not high, but it is also quite practical." ”
After all the introductions, Su Tianqi returned to his seat, took a sip of tea, and looked at Yuan Qing leisurely.
Yuan Qing pondered for a moment and asked, "May I ask Brother Su, what is the value of the Fog Hidden Array and the Spirit Gathering Array?"
Su Tianqi had long expected him to ask this, and blurted out: "The Fog Hidden Array is only a low-level primary magic array, only fifteen spirit stones, and the spirit gathering array is more valuable, it costs twenty-five spirit stones." ”
"I don't know if merit points can be traded?"
Su Tianqi smiled and said: "Of course you can, if the merit points are cheaper, the fog hidden array is twelve points, and the spirit gathering array is twenty-two points." ”
"Okay, I've got it all, how do I trade?"
"Brother Yuan is really happy! You only need to probe into the identity token with your divine sense and transfer the corresponding points to me. As he spoke, he took out his identity token and handed it to Yuan Qing.
Yuan Qing also took out the identity token, and his divine sense probed into it, and found that there were many crystal light points in it, no more, no less, exactly sixty-two, which was exactly sixty-two after he had exchanged two medium-grade spirit stones for two hundred merit points, plus twelve points for the new disciples, and what was left after changing the water breaking sword.
As soon as the divine thought moved, thirty-four points of light were divided, and then they swiped on Su Tianqi's token, and the points of light submerged into it like a milk swallow throwing into the forest.
Su Tianqi took back the token, swept his thoughts, and then waved his hand, and the two formations of fog concealment and spirit gathering stopped in front of Yuan Qing, and Yuan Qing put it into the storage bag with a wave of his sleeve.
Su Tianqi smiled when he saw this, and poured himself a drink.
Yuan Qing put away his things and got up, and after the two of them bowed to each other, he said goodbye and left, walked a few steps as if he suddenly remembered something, and turned around and said, "Brother Su, do you have night pearls, futons and other things for sale?"
Su Tianqi was stunned when he heard this, he chuckled randomly, turned over and took out two fist-sized Night Pearls and handed them to Yuan Qing and said, "I will carry two Night Pearls with me, and I will give them to Brother Yuan." There is really no futon, Brother Yuan can go to the Tongbao Building next to it to have a look. ”.
Yuan Qing put away the night pearl and asked, "Tongbao Building?"
Su Tianqi explained: "Tongbao Pavilion is the industry of Tongyi Pavilion in my Xuanyuanfang City, this Tongyi Pavilion is a merchant force across the continent, which is all-encompassing, and the variety of items it deals in, far beyond ordinary people's imagination, is a giant force on the same level as my Xuanyuan." ”
Yuan Qing was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then asked, "This Tongbao Building may be traded with merit?"
Su Tianqi smiled when he heard this: "There are not only disciples in the sect in the market, but also many scattered cultivators, and merit points are only circulated in the door, which is useless to outsiders. ”
Yuan Qing looked clear, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Brother Su, can you trade some spirit stones with me?"
Su Tianqi laughed and said, "How much does Brother Yuan need?"
Yuan Qing also smiled heartily: "Twenty yuan is enough." ”
Su Tianqi readily responded and took out his token, and then took out a leather bag and handed it to Yuan Qing.
Yuan Qing took the token and handed it back after transferring twenty merits, picked up the bag and swept it around, and found that there were thirty spirit stones inside, and couldn't help asking, "Brother Su, what does this mean?"
Su Tianqi put away the token and said indifferently: "The clansmen were reckless before and collided with Brother Yuan, these ten spirit stones should be used to make amends, and I hope Brother Su will not take it to heart." ”
Yuan Qing paused when he heard this, then put away the spirit stone and arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Su, Yuan said goodbye." ”
"Brother Yuan walks slowly. Su Tianqi also returned the salute.
Yuan Qing walked out of Su Garden, thinking all the way to Tongbao Building; Su Tianqi returned to the seat after Yuan Qing left, and made himself a cup of tea leisurely, with a smile on his face.
After walking a few steps to Tongbao Building, Yuan Qing glanced up at the purple plaque at the door, and then strode in one step.
